At the weekend I know I’ll be in a social situation with loads of old friends’ parents who will doubtless ask us yet again why aren’t you getting married. In fact they’ll probably be so rude to ask why we aren’t planning on children as well!

Anyway, we are very happy together and have been for the last 12 years and looking forward to spending our lives together but I’d love some comedy replies. Especially if it raises an old “stuck in the mud”s eyebrows.

So, what’ya got?

Marrying a transvestite isn’t legal yet ?

Takes more effort and commitment to remain un-married, no legal ties and no contract written, meaning marriages are the easy way out- they’re all lazy.

‘I’m not a sheep: mooooo mooooo’

marriages are the easy way out- they’re all lazy

HA.

“cos she’ll probably stop doing xxxx”

I heard on TV once, a young couple kept being told “you’re next” by older family members when attending weddings.

They started saying the same to the older family members, when attending funerals.

Cos I’ve already done it twice?

“I am, you weren’t invited because you’re a knob who asks too many questions”

I can’t marry her until my divorce to the twins cones through.

“Because I’ve seen how f*cking miserable you’ve all become since you got married”

Or

“I’m not getting married because I want to continue having sex”

🙂

Living in Sin hasn’t become ‘normal’ and we enjoy sex too much for marriage to ruin it!

Good work! Keep ’em coming.

She isn’t pregnant?

The one I alwasy use which stops people dead is “well I don’t plan on being with Mr MC in 10 years time”, the first time I got silence then a hesitant “Does mr MC know this?” ….. I didn’t answer told them it was none of their business. Use it a lot now and it’s great. Why does society fell the need when you hit 30’s to say “when you getting married?” then “when you having children?” or “why aren’t you having unprotected sex?” is the version I prefer!

Most people I know who get married get divorced …. so why waste your time and a WHOLE HEAP of money!!!

What Woody said, (and I noticed about my friends and family). 😀

a few of the GF’s relatives at her sisters wedding asked the pair of us why we weren’t getting married (we’ve been together for – gulp- nigh on ten years, her sister and her man for two). the GF pointed at me and said “what… to him?”. we laughed.

… i punched her later, mind. cheeky bitch.

Lol MC I always used to say ‘what’s the point, id only have to divorce him in a few years’. T’was by far my favourite response 😀 always got funny looks

oh, i thought you had died

How about “cos with relatives / friends like you the gifts would be hideous”?

Because we are both gay, this is a sham relationship to make social situations easier.

Or

Because we figure we can each make more money by have sham immigration marriages for money.

Or

To make conversion, otherwise what would you have to talk to us about?

TJ has it so far

Why does society fell the need when you hit 30’s to say “when you getting married?

Possibly because this is still thought to be the norm by society, particularly those of an older generation? I don’t see why anyone would get so aersy about something like that once they appreciated the view of the world from another standpoint. Everyone has a different idea of ‘normal.

wse are married , we just didnt tell anyone.

Isnt marrige what old people used to do,

My boyfreind wouldnt let me marry a woman,

Because I would lose my benefits.

Because that would mean I’d have to stop seeing other women.

We prefer expensive holidays to spending a fortune feeding and entertaining you lot

To quote someone famous who’s name escapes me.

“I’m not going to get married. I’m just going to find a woman I don’t like and give her my house”

I think it may have been Woody Allen.

a casual I already am has raised a few eyebrows before now.

Just tell them it’s a BLACK CARD situation. Make an actual black card to wave at them if it helps.

‘Im not sure she’s the one for me yet, and I don’t want to rush into anything.’

3 grown up children and 20 odd years in.

We’re still waiting to find the right person.

oh, i thought you had died

Proper lol! 😆

mmm it’s awkward.

court order

don’t want to encourage her

she wants me to give up the mistress

because it is a foul outdated contract that allows a man to take ownership of a woman degrading her to a farm animal. is that what you believe in. is it? well is it?

I was going to buy her a ring and then thought F%^^ it I could get a good full sus bike for that money ( this STW after all)

“Because I don’t love her”

because I’m her pimp.

“Because she keeps running away when the drugs wear off”.

Similar to this, I was going to suggest one of you saying:

“He’s/She’s already married. It would make things complicated if we got hitched too”

my wife would object….

Because she moans when i keep digging up the patio so I have somewhere to keep the hitchhikers.
